Blair, now transportation director for Douglas County Senior Services, coordinates seven Bus 62 routes to take seniors to meals, the senior center, and other destinations, aiming to boost independence for adults 60 and older. He notes underutilization is due to lack of awareness and generous door-to-door service remains, with drivers helping seniors board and travel.
